I have given my notice of resignation to Patrion Mortgage, effective June 1st, 2009. I am taking a 3 month sabbatical. There's a good chance that at the end of this much-needed break I won't return to working in the real estate industry. As you can imagine, this was a big decision for 'The Hemet Home Loan Guy' and for my family. Those who are close to me no doubt noticed my struggle with this decision over the last several months. The projects that will receive my greatest attention during my sabbatical are my wife's amazing photography business, homeschooling our four incredible kids,

When I go to see a movie, all I want is a great story, powerful performances, a few laughs and a way of looking at the world that challenges my mind. Is that too much to ask? :) Okay...that is too much to ask of every movie, I know. But in this case, Hollywood has delivered. Traitor is a pulse-pounding thriller. But it's more than that. It's the story of a man of faith (Hotel Rwanda's Don Cheadle) stuck in the middle of the war on terror. I was shocked that critics were 'meh' on this movie. I was riveted. It worked

Eleanor Thorne...who featured an awesome local artist and revealed a fascinating family history. Pam Pugmire...who was a finalist in the Miss Idaho pageant and has 6 kids. So here goes........ 1. Who is your favorite musical artist? Gosh...that's a hard one to narrow down.

The Hemet Zoo is now home to animals not found anywhere else in nature! Okay, there is no Hemet Zoo...but my son Kyler shared a fun web site where kids can learn about animals while creating their own. It's called Switcheroo Zoo.

I have to admit: for most of my life I have thought of Memorial Day as a day off of work (or school). Recent events have showed me the horrible cost of living in a dangerous world.

Mr. Tietz rocks like no other teacher. Diamond Bar High School has a hero teaching there and I want everyone to know it. Tony Tietz aka Tony Deerfield was (is?) the bass player in the band skypark. When his record label was bought by Warner Bros. in 2000, everyone in the band started looking for other work. Tyrone Wells started his career as a solo musician, Keith Gove became a chaplain in the U.S. Army, I began my transformation into the Hemet Home Loan Guy...and Tony began teaching. Eventually he joined the foreign language department at Diamond Bar High School teaching French

Today is my thirty-third birthday. I'm not afraid of aging, or of letting people know about it. Time is one of the ingredients to most good things in life...friendships, trees, wine, wisdom... I'll have a few candles on my cake, so I can have my fair share of wishes. Here we go (in no particular order): To get rid of 43lbs. To hire a new administrative assistant before the end of May. For Iraq to get better and for our military to come safely home. For the wealthy nations to forgive the debt of the poor nations. To follow Jesus more closely.
